Biblical Text

“You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how can its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything, but is thrown out and trampled under foot.” (Matthew 5.13, NRSV)

Questions

• Do you agree that the church will become inert if it becomes the majority in a culture? If so, what other examples can you cite and what solution would you propose? If you disagree, what would a Christian society look like and how would you guard against inertness?
• How would you be salt in the various contexts within which you live? Can you do this on your own? How could other Christians help you?
